Where angels fear to tread

The ups and downs of life as a former hospital chaplain and rare blood cancer sufferer. I was diagnosed with MDS (Myelo Dysplastic Syndrome) in 2000. I had a bone marrow transplant in Oct 2016. Since then I’ve been living with extensive GVHD (Graft Verses Host Disease). Hope you find something that helps in these blogs.
